There are times when
desire and commitment drive us out of any comfort zone we could
possibly imagine.

Manley Feinberg II thought about that fact one
day as he stared at a wall of rock in front of him in the Aksu
Valley, one of the last frontiers of big-wall rock climbing, located
in the country of Kyrgyzstan in Central Asia.

Feinberg, a business leader, motivational speaker
and author of Reaching Your Next Summit (www.VerticalLessons.com),
was about to take on one of the greatest challenges in this
adventure sport. But before he could do it, he had to put faith in a
Russian colleague named Dima who suffered a seizure only hours
before the climb.

Dima served as Feinberg’s belayer, the one who
uses a small metal device known as a belay to control the friction
of a climber’s rope and save him if he begins to fall.

"The belay allows climbers to safely accomplish
what seems impossible," Feinberg says. "The same belay principle can
be your secret weapon in life where someone can help you stretch
your own comfort zone and reach toward higher summits while
encouraging you and saving you from the falls you will inevitably
encounter."

Feinberg says the business leaders he often
advises and anyone else looking to accomplish lofty goals can use
their own belay system and reach beyond their comfort zone. He
offers these six tips for doing just that:

Get a safety system in
place. Climbers, like anyone looking
to accomplish big things, expect to fall on the way to reaching
their summit and that’s why they use a belayer. "Before
beginning the climb to your new goal, you should have processes
in place to allow for your inevitable mistakes." Feinberg says.
"Your own personal belayer that provides a safety system for
when you fall."

Be sure to have just
enough rope. A belayer must feed a
climber just enough rope to allow him to move in a desired
direction. You’ll want partners in business, and in life, who
give you enough rope to climb and room to grow.

Avoid too much rope.
A partner also shouldn’t give you too much slack because when
you fall, the impact is going to be even greater for both of
you.

Don’t let your belayer
hold you back. A belayer must feed
you just enough rope as you move along. However, they can hold
you up if they aren’t giving you enough slack to move.
Identifying a belayer who is holding you back in life and
disconnecting from him or her can be one of the most courageous
and productive actions you will ever take.

Find a partner whose
actions are immediate. When you fall,
which you will if you try to accomplish goals beyond your
comfort zone, your partners must be fully present for you, just
as a belayer must lock off the rope right away when a climber
begins to fall.

Focus on reassurance
after the fall. A good partner will
help you recover and get back at your endeavor as soon as
possible.

"When executed consistently, the belay lesson
will have a dramatic impact on your life," says Feinberg, who
recommends those looking to accomplish bigger goals should start
their day with two questions: "Who do I need on belay today?" In
other words, who can support me to help me accomplish my goals? And,
"Who will I belay today?" What individual needs my support the most
today?
